A/N: Yay! The second chapter! So, I don't know what I think of this one yet. Something needed to happen for her to be introduced back to La Push. Read it and then tell me what you think. I'll explain it more at the end of this chapter.
Chapter Two: The Faces From The Past
I sat in the kitchen of an unfamiliar house. With two strangers staring at me, and a woman with a scared face cooking something. I'm surprised they didn't tie me to the chair to make sure that I didn't run away. I sat there looking down at my hands, so that they didn't look into my eyes.
"She looks like Rachel." One of them said.
The other shook her head. "That is not Rachel. I know exactly what Rachel looks like. And that's not her. Maybe it's Rebecca...?"
Someone else walked into the room. "Nope, I grew up with Rebecca and Rachel. The only way I could tell them apart was that Rebecca had a mark on her cheek." He sat down next to the other two and stared at me as well. "So...Who is she?"
The others shrugged.
I looked up. "Maybe I'll tell you who I am if you tell me who you are?" I snapped, lying threw my teeth as I did. "Or maybe if it felt like I wasn't being held hostage."
The two who had brought me here laughed. "I'm Jared." One said.
"I'm Paul." Said the one who knew i wasn't Rachel.
"And I'm Quil." Said the one who knew I wasn't Rebecca.
My face paled. Not only were they all my age, not only did I used to go to school with them all. Quil used to be one of my best friends. Paul used to be the bully that I beat up once. And Jared was the guy who used to follow me around. I was starting to hyperventilate. At any second they could recognize me. And I didn't like that. I tried to stand up, but Paul pushed me back down.
"We told you who are. Now it's your turn."
"I said maybe..."
I took two deep breaths as more people walked in.
"Did she answer yet?" Said the tallest one.
"That's Sam." Jared said. Then he turned to Sam. "No. So far we've made guesses of the Black twins, but Paul and Quil said it's not either of them."
If only they knew how close they were when they said: Black Twins. My heart was beating so fast that I knew I was going to be sick.
Look, another one of them said. "She's green."
I put my head in my hands and started rocking back and forth. "Can I leave? Please?" I whispered. "I don't want to be here."
The phone rang before anyone could answer me. Paul jumped up to answer it. "Hello? Hey Rachel. You will never guess what?" There was a big smile on his face. Was he dating my sister? "There is a girl here and she looks exactly like you and Rebecca. Isn't that weird? Rachel? Hello?" He hung up the phone and looked at us all with a frown. "She hung up on me."
"It's okay," Jared said. "Sometimes Kim hangs up on me too."
"No she doesn't."
"Your right. I was just trying to make you feel better."
While they were all distracted I stood up and tried to make my way out of the kitchen. I thought I was doing I good job of it too. No one noticed as I managed to walk by them. No one stopped them. They were all too busy reassuring Paul that Rachel didn't hate him.
Just as I was about to make it to the door I banged into some one.
"Watch it." I snapped, even though it was my fault. And I looked up to see who had stopped me.
Well, I think I shouldn't have looked up. Because everything around me did stop, or slow down, or whatever. All I knew was that he had drop dead and bury me now sort of eyes, they eyes that once you look into just once you will never forget them. They are glued into to your mind...forever. It stopped my breathing. And I couldn't move. Something felt wrong with me. Like something was happening, and I couldn't stop it.
It was freaking me out.
And he stared back at me with confusion and disbelief. For a moment I freaked out.
He knows who I am.
"I know you..." He whispered. "But who are you?"
I felt frozen.
"I'm Embry Call." He said holding out his hand.
I just stared at it.
Embry Call.
Another one of my old closest friends.
"Did everyone start taking steroids or something?" I shrieked out frustrated. Why was everyone so tall, and so buff?
They laughed at me, all except for Embry, who dropped his hand. "You sound familiar too."
Now everyone was staring.
I did so not like this.
"Excuse me. I have to go." I pushed past him and made to open the front door when it was opened first. I jumped back as I stared at a familiar face that I would recognize anywhere.
She grabbed my face and stared into my eyes for a total of five seconds before she threw my arms around me. For a second I didn't do anything, but then it hit me. I was in La Push and one of my older sisters had her arms around me in a hug. Tears welled up in my eyes and I hugged her back.
Rachel rubbed my hair off my face and kissed my forehead. She dried my tears, only for them to fall in her own eyes. "Your home...I can't believe it..."
"Rachel...?" Paul said from somewhere behind me.
She looked up at him. "Thank you for calling me to let me know. I need to call Rebecca, I need to tell dad. I just sort of ran out on him without telling him anything. Oh, Jake will be so glad to know your home!"
"I'm confused." I heard Quil mutter.
"Seriously?" She looked at him, with a frown on her face. "You guys...you don't know?" Now she looked at me. "They don't know?"
I shrugged. "It's not my fault their blind."
Rachel grinned and picked me right up off my feet. "It's so good to have you back. Maybe I can go into the house and smile for real now. Maybe Rebecca will come home. That would be so nice. It would really make dad happy to have all his kids under one roof again."
"They won't all be under the same roof though." Embry muttered. "Jake and ... and you-know... are still MIA."
A giggle escaped Rachel's lips. "They really are blind aren't they? Guys, I'm ashamed of you. I can't believe none of you recognize my little sister."
Jaws dropped.
Eyes widened.
The silence was deadly.
"Ayasha?"
Okay, so...Here it is. I know I compared Asha (it's going to be Asha for short, as in her nickname, but her family calls her Ayasha. It's just her friends her call her Asha.) to Rachel and Rebecca alot, but its because their the only girls in the family and I'm not going to compare her to her dad. She'll start being compared to Jake soon enough. I tried to set this up so things were in motion (such as the moment with Embry) before they knew who she was, so that way it was more of a shock. And finally, up next is their reactions to her being back. I'll try not to make it short. But the next chapter will not be Asha's POV. After that I think her dad deserves to know that his daughter is back.
And...REVIEW? What did you think? Is there anything you would like to see?
Finally, Question of the chapter is:
Should Asha be a wolf? Or would it make the story to complicated?
I know some people find it interesting that way. I honestly think it would ruin the story, but it's up to my readers. So, let me know. And-
REVIEW!
